The Armageddon Counter

[MagisterCultuum]

Maybe with a high enough AC evil civs should be able to build the Final altar. Evil civs (or at least The Sheaim) want The One to return, because with the world so corrupt it would destroy everything.

Do the Sheaim like you more based on how much you destroy the world? They should.

one thing that i think would make sense is to have the AC counter prevent a good civ victory, i.e. make it so that you can't win the Altar victory unless the AC is below some number, maybe 20.

I like that idea! I think it would add a new dimension to the altar victory other than GPP building and production building.

What if players can still finish the altar at higher levels, but would REALLY NOT WANT TO. Flavorwise, this would be causing The One to return to a far too corrupted creation, destroying it. This could be an evil victory condition, or a defeat condition for eveyone except maybe the Sheaim and/or Infernal.

Alternately, it could cause the AC to immediately reach 100%, causing whatever event happens then (I think I read that they added an event here since the last time I got it up that high. I know I've seen complaints about the game crashing at AC 100).

It might be an amususingly frustrating twist if the Elegy of the Sheaim were completed right before the final Altar, reversing its effects entirely.

i think that the elohim and sheiam need to build their rituals more often. ive almost never seen them build it. pretty much the way the armageddon counter goes is it goes whitchever way the player wants it to
